Why did the Nazi want Sweden to remain free?
Many countries declared neutrality in World War II; some of these neutral countries were occupied and/or annexed by Germany (e.g. Netherlands, Belgium, Denmark, Norway), and others were left alone (e.g. Sweden, Spain, Switzerland). The reasons why some countries were left alone are complex, but in general it's simply because the neutral countries were more useful to Germany as independent countries than as occupied countries. Occupying a country requires a lot of manpower and money, as well as resources, so it's cheaper not to occupy a country if you don't have to. Sweden was surrounded by German-occupied Norway on the west and German-allied Finland on the east (the Finns were forced to ally with Germany because the Soviet Union kept invading them in an attempt to annex Finland). South of Sweden was German-occupied Denmark, Germany proper, and German-occupied Poland, Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia. So, Sweden was completely surrounded by Germany--there was no reason for Germany to occupy Sweden, too. Sweden also granted Germany certain rights in order to maintain its independence. For instance, Sweden allowed German war materiel to be transported from Germany to Norway and to Finland via Sweden; for this and other reasons, some argue that Sweden really collaborated with the Germans and was not neutral, properly speaking.
How did world war 2 affect Sweden?
Sweden remained neutral during World War II despite its close location to Germany and other involved countries. Franco British allies granted support in the war on the condition that they could pass through neutral Norway and Sweden instead of taking the road through Soviet occupied Russia. In 1943, Sweden housed all of Denmark's Jews and took in Jews from Norway and Finland. It is reported that Sweden aided and helped more Jews than any other country during the war.
